Life’s Real Treasure
I’m supposed to be happy because its payday today, but the crinkles at the side of my eyes this afternoon and the constant smile that graced my glossed lips are due to another reason. I was with my old high school chums, Deo, Kat and Mel, which gave me far greater satisfaction than harvesting money and achievement-charing! (too bad that Dada was not with us, so we just talked about her, hehe joke). What was supposed to be a ‘bisita sa gadan’ became a mini-reunion for us. Anyway, it’s always like mini-reunion for us…there’s just so many stories to tell and memories to recall. Friends, therefore, are the real wealth (cliche but true)!
It was a good break after the parade of tiring projects. Loads of laughs on a single, happy afternoon is enough to rejuvenate me of my sapped energy and enthusiasm. Once again , I had a good taste of crisp reality . During the past few days, I must admit that everything revolves around my own time – it’s as if I’m in a time capsule totally engrossed with my own reality. This afternoon though, the colors went back in my life. Dear Lord, thanks for that.

I have another grace to thank for, that my ol’ friend, my roommate for five and a half years sounds fine again. She was nursing a broken heart but distance and personal preoccupation kept me from sharing her deepest heartaches. Now, I can see that she’s almost back in her feet again ( hopefully I’m right!) Her texts are a constant reminder that there were once rowdy, unruly, unorganized, crazy and supercrazy, rule-breaking girls who happily inhabited newforeha room onetwenty =)

Hey Joann, you know, I’m always looking forward to our coffee afternoons. Even though it costs me bucks (hehe joke only), you are almost always the one who have to bear with my incessant blabber and second hand smoke. I did not lie in my friendster testi. It is true. Wheneve I am around your company, I am always in my most honest self…hehe…whatever that means…Next time, we’ll drink beer =) Cheers.
